Place a towel around the neck and
shoulders of the person whose hair
you are trimming. Make sure the
person is seated so that the head
is roughly at your eye level. Before
trimming, comb the hair so that it
falls naturally and you can see the
direction in which it grows.
Always cut against the natural
direction of the hair.

As you cut, take a break at
regular intervals. You can
always make a correction, but
not once the hair has been cut.

Only cut a small amount the first
time you use it. This is the only
way to get used to the variable
grades.
